We’ve already been using this internally to track how load forecasts have been evolving in PJM ahead of next week’s extreme heat wave, which is currently forecasted to hit an all-time record high for load

ERCOT uses both phrases to describe batteries in their data. It's "Power Storage" in their fuel mix chart, but "Energy Storage Resources" in the dedicated graph

Batteries have Reshaped ERCOT’s Ancillary Services Procurement
For most of their tenure on the ERCOT grid, batteries have largely made their bones supplying ancillary services as opposed to energy, but that is beginning to change.

At some point, batteries will saturate the market.
Saturation has more than one definition, but the simplest is when there is enough battery capacity attempting to provide ancillary services that the price declines and operators begin to shift towards energy.
That moment may be now

Load in the Far West of ERCOT has exploded
Expansion and electrification of oil and gas operations has driven load growth in ERCOT’s Far West weather zone. Likely the fastest load growth in the country over the past few years.
